Hi Markus, GeratdM and Wikidatans,

Quality generativity unfoldingly in Wikidata will be key for future
creative Wikidata-Wikipedia achievements, and even decades and centuries
ahead. Is there any focus on comparing Wikimedia "assets" in Wikidata
itself or by the WMF, in terms of "quality generativity" rather than the
term "quality control," that might both include the generative wiki
conversation between individuals as well as a machine learning component?

I'm sharing a Lightning Talk at the WMF in SF, in a Google Hangout too, on
Tuesday 11/24 (https://m.mediawiki.org/wiki/Lightning_Talks) re donating CC
WUaS to CC Wikidata and may touch on this since WUaS seeks to become the
Harvard of the internet in all languages, with online accrediting
universities in each of all ~200 countries' main languages (eg accrediting
on MIT OCW in 7 languages and CC Yale OYC).

Thanks for this Wikidata conversation,
Scott MacLeod
